Pain Management for Sciatica Nerve Pain

The sciatic is made up of five nerves that run from your lower back down into your legs. When the sciatic nerves get pinched or pressed, you experience what is called sciatica. Sciatica is nerve pain from an irritation to the sciatic nerve. Our pain management physician group can help relieve your sciatica nerve pain.

  • Weakness in your lower back, buttocks, leg, or feet

  • Loss of bowel and bladder control (in more severe cases)
